My girlfriend also has the self-image fat problem because all her boyfriends in the past treated her like crap and so has some of her family members about her size.

She was very self-concious, especially at first about her size. I found that just constantly telling her that her body is beautiful and sexy seemed to help some. She still thinks she is too large but if only she knew that I am attracted to that. There is more of her there to hold? I have tried telling her this, but it seems to be only having moderate success.

Anyways, people who judge other based on looks, wealth, etc. don't deserve to find the perfect mate they seem to be hunting for since they can't truly appreciate the most important thing about a partner - her personality.
